PRESIDENT’S REPORT
Sadly I must begin this report by paying tribute to a personal friend and a great ambassador for the breed Lesley Dowey who was tragically killed in a motor accident in October. Lesley judged many times in New Zealand and conducted one of our early schools for prospective judges. The Arabian Horse community is poorer for her passing.
As I write our office is completely up to date as Fiona has processed all the registrations that have been received. Obviously we still expect a trickle of late applications but the downward trend in registrations seems to have levelled out which is good news.
We have been talking regularly to our Australian friends and have found that what happens here or there is similar and that we battle with almost identical problems albeit on a different scale. However the marked difference is in the growth of Partbred breeding that the Australian Society reports the Registrar there agreeing with my belief that Purebred ownership more often than not comes via being a Partbred owner first.
I propose to reprint our Patron HRH Princess Alia’s address to WAHO in full in the next issue however suffice to say that Princess Alia echoes what many are saying in that while we seem to universally accept the way our horses look in the breed ring outsiders don’t always like what they see and feel turned off and intimidated. This in turn inhibits growth in the market place. Real food for thought!
At our last meeting Council hosted representatives from the Auckland Club. A frank and full discussion on many matters made the get together worthwhile and gave Council some good ideas for the future. This illustrates that Council is not an island and we are open to your feedback, constructive ideas and proposals.
I have received a number of calls about the Roll of Merit. Council have decided to continue with the Roll of Merit for both Pure and Partbreds, an announcement on the requirements which are virtually turning the wheel back to the way it was at the beginning will be ready after the next Council meeting.
I hope to be in attendance at shows in both Islands over the summer and look forward to hearing constructive comment from those of you who want to chat. The National Show preparations are looking great, a European Judge, a facility that seems to have met with general approval and a date to suit most of you. The Auckland Spectacular and the
Canterbury Show are both set for good dates and great Judges with the Auckland Club opting for a three judge panel and a very up market venue at which to showcase our breed. Good work and a pat on the back to everyone working on these events. Your work is appreciated.
Our office is set to be closed for a week from 6 November to 13 November while Fiona attends to her personal life however you are welcome to call up any Councillor if you require advice or a problem solved during this period.
The date of the next Council meeting will be published in the December Arabianz.
Good luck for the season ahead.

VALE – RNZ AMETHYST (IIU AU)
Fate dealt a cruel blow to Fanus and Ria Crous of Rhodium Arabians, when just days after taking out Reserve Champion Filly at the 2009 NZAHBS National Show and being paraded at Rhodium’s Open Day at Isola, a freak paddock accident claimed the life of this budding young super star.
By Asfour +WG x Simeon Sashua, Amethyst had a stunning future. She was undoubtedly a shining star at the stud and as both a show horse and breeding matron, her future going forward would have been immense. Who knows what future accolades she would have added to her collection.
Sincere sympathy to Fanus and Ria and everyone at Rhodium on their very sad and untimely loss of this stunning young fi lly.

COUNCIL UPDATES & PORTFOLIO REPORTS
New Members - 1 October 2012Ellenna Caudwell Pokeno Associate
Derivative Register & Fees Mel Gubb is working with our IT contractor to put in place the codes required to allow 12.5% Derivatives to be registered with the Society. We have in the region of 120 possible code combinations to work with. Registration Certificates for Derivatives from 12.5% to 25% will not be issued until the computer programme is up and running. All registrations received in the interim will be checked and a temporary letter issued advising that the registration is pending so the owner can still enter their horse in this season’s shows. Horses/ponies put forward for 12.5% Derivative Registration must be traceable back to a Purebred Arabian registered with a recognised Society with no unbroken lines to finish at a minimum of 12.5% Arabian blood. The onus is on the person submitting the registration to provide a pedigree to prove this.Derivative Registration fees have been revised by Council and take effect immediately:Gelding (any age) $ 75.00Filly/Mare (any age) $ 75.00Colt/Stallion (any age) $200.00
EnduranceEndurance New Zealand have set their 2013 Forum dates - they are: South Island 13/14 April and North Island 11/12 May.
Full Membership Fees 2013Due to the continued pressure on the Society’s finances Council has increased the Full Membership Fee due 1 January 2013 to $200.00 including GST. Members will be given the opportunity to pay their subscription monthly over the year. Details for this option will be sent with the December mailout. Purebred Registrations - late fees A late fee of $300.00 will be applicable to any breeder submitting late registrations for horses over the age of 2 years. Such applications will need to be approved by Council before being accepted and must adhere to whatever rules were in place at the time the foal was born, the breeder must have been a member at the time the foal was born, and a member at the time of application.
Rules Mel Gubb has been in contact with the Incorporated Societies Office to check the validity of Joint/Family/Partnership memberships. The Incorporated Societies Act 1908 dictates that a member must be an individual or an Incorporated Society to be a member of the NZAHBS. Previous Councils have allowed a number of Joint/Family/Partnerships to have been formed which will need to be corrected to individual membership(s). The National Secretary will be writing to those concerned with the options available to them.

AGM REPORT
Well, we have had a busy time during the last couple of weeks and it was great to be involved with the New Zealand Arab Horse Breeders Society helping to organise the 2012 Stud Tour.
With all the meetings I have recently attended through my work, I decided not to attend the AGM, which was held at the Armitage in Tauranga. On Saturday 5th May, Bruce and I got out all the cleaning gear and scrubbed the four (and a bit – Melika’ s foal which is now just over half term) horses in preparation for the day. I was under strict supervision not to over-clip bridle paths, so the end result was rather pleasing. A quick spray of show gloss and a night in the stables was in order.
On Sunday morning it was time to get the sausage rolls, cakes, etc ready for morning tea as well as organise the horses and Candy’s rider – Claudia. Bruce was taking everything in his stride even managing to be chief cake slicer, horse handler and transport manager and it was great to have my friend Miriam help with the hoof polish and being roped in at the last minute to lead the horses. Colleen brought her Purebred mare Atchina Shaquila (AU) along with harness and Lee Wynne-Jones brought her Purebred mare Karamea Leilahna for an inhand display. Friends – Hayley and Andy with their daughters Ruby and Lila rode their ponies from up the road to Candy Lodge – Ava and Shetland pony Scruffy, for a bit of additional entertainment.
Cars started arriving before 9am and it was great to see people from as far as Christchurch to
by Kim Cawte of Candy Lodge
Whangarei attending, as well as the odd local. A good turnout, but unfortunately I was unable to meet most, having to speak in front of everyone, committing to memory a spiel about all the horses, riders and handlers present and feeling jolly nervous! Managed to even include Nico (the dog) and explain his limp from his recent operation.
Colleen soon had people going for rides in her gig, which provided a different show of Arabian versatility and she has since been requested to another event from this showing.
Candy Selika didn’t disappoint after only having a few lessons prior in dressage and being only 3 years old. I was hesitant in showing the matriarch, 27 year old Candy Zara, but am so proud of her and after the good summer and quantities of grass – with her shiny coat she didn’t look too bad. Candy Shalimar went back in time to his inhand days with Miriam in his solid, Quarab way and Marhaba Melika – looking very “in foal”, flaunted herself, mainly looking for her paddock mate Zara. Lee’s friend Alison took Karamea Leilahna into the paddock for display with some of her ribbons and she fitted in perfectly with the other Candy Lodge horses, which are all chestnut with a white blaze/snip!
After morning tea, I then proceeded to lead everyone in their cars up to Anne Marie Garcia’s Byzance Stud to see her horses which included Arabians, National Show Horses and American Saddlebreds. A quick return home to tidy up before heading to lunch at Kiwi 360 then onto Gerzanne Arabians for a musical display with their lovely Arabian horses.

2012 WAHO AWARD WINNERby Sandra Haywood
Karamea Bay Shadow was bred by Alison Steward of Karamea Arabians. Shadow is by the late El Kheir Galal who is the sire of many very successful halter & performance horses and his dam is Karamea Mira.
Shadow started his show career in 1995 with breeder Alison and was later shown successfully through to March 2000 with owner Robyn Barker. Shadow excelled in the show ring and took out many major placings in several A Class Shows and also many wins and placings at local A & P Shows. The biggest highlight of Shadow’s show career was winning the title of Reserve National Champion Inhand Gelding at the NZ National Arabian Championships in 1999.
Listed below some of Shadow’s Major Show results:
1995 - Arabian Spectacular1st Classic Action & Champion Gelding
1996 - Northern All Arabian Show Champion Gelding, 3rd in Top 5 of overall show
1998 - North Island Arabian Championships Champion Purebred Gelding
1999 - North Island Arabian Championships Champion Purebred Gelding
1999 - NZ National Arabian Championships Reserve National Champion In hand Gelding
2000 - NZ National Arabian Championships Reserve National Champion Costume & 1st Novice Ridden Purebred
We purchased Shadow in June of 2000 knowing he would make the perfect family horse. It didn’t take long for Shadow to progress through the Endurance novice system to gain open status. Shadow excelled quickly and was the winner of many 40-80 kilometre rides in his first couple of seasons and continued this trait throughout his entire career whilst also excelling in FEI events up to 3 Star Level. Shadow is a lovely natured horse with a laid back attitude, he does not waste any energy or get over excited. He also has a naturally low heart rate and his average lag time is between 2-3 minutes, this was a huge advantage especially in the longer distance rides where good lag times are essential for faster completion times and of course gaining leads on fellow competitors. Shadow was successful in both the Junior and Open divisions taking out major placings in both, including 3 Championship Titles.
Listed below are Shadows major endurance results (Championship’s/FEI-CEI Star Events etc): 2002 - Taupo World Masters Series Ride 1st 120k** Junior & Best Conditioned
2003 - North Island Championships 1st 100k** Junior & Best Conditioned
2003 - NZ National Championships 1st 100k** Junior & Best Conditioned
2003 - North Island Championships 3rd 100k** Open
2004 - Horse of the Year Public Display Q 65k Open
2005 - North Island Champs 10th 100k** Open
2005 - NZ National Championships 4th 100k** Open
2005 - Taupo Labour Weekend Ride Q 120k Open
2006 - North Island Champs 9th 160k*** Open
2006 - Ruahine Premier Points 3rd 100k Open
2007 - Wellington Premier Points 3rd 100k Open
2007 - NZ National Championships 1st 100k** Open
2008 - NZ National Champs 9th 160k*** Open
2009 - North Island Championships 4th 120k** Open
2010 - North Island Champs 3rd= 80k CEN Open
2011 - NZ National Champs 3rd 60K CEN Open
Shadow was twice the recipient of the beautiful “Registered Purebred Arabian Competing under its NZAHBS Registered Name” Sash - first in 2003 and again in 2004 in the 100k** Junior & Open events.
Shadow is now retired. At 20 years young he is sound and well. He competed right up until the end of last season. His total lifetime endurance kilometres are 6000, there are only a handful of horses that have completed this distance and those that have are on the Endurance Distance Roll of Merit for life. This is a huge achievement showing that Shadow is the perfect ambassador for the Arabian breed - versatile at excelling in both show ring and endurance, and proving a worthy recipient of the WAHO Award.

The new classic film about the Arabian horse. Every breeder, owner, and rider should have it!
“This is a truly exciting history from the early to the modern evolution of the Arabian horse. Learn about the breed that has made more of an impact on modern breeds than any other.” ~ ARABIAN HORSE ASSOCIATION
“This film is the most informative, entertaining and fast paced documentary on horses that I have ever seen.”~ KRISTIN HARDIN, Hall of Fame Trainer, National Champion Trainer, Jumper
“A wonderful film! A fascinating and entertaining story whether you are a horse expert or novice.” ~ KAREN HOUSE, Pulitzer Prize Winner, former Publisher Wall Street Journal
“Brilliant! Galloping out of remotest antiquity, prancing majestically at mankind’s most fabled royal courts, in an awe-inspiring destiny siring all the lineages of racing’s thoroughbreds as well as the mounts for Napolean’s lancers and Gustavus Adolphus’ “Polish-Arabs”, the “Gift from the Desert” is the gorgeously enchanting star of this wondrous film.
“At this moment when tragic images bombard us nightly from the Middle East, one of our world’s most expert film-makers has launched a star into our sadly darkened sky. Gift from the Desert chronicles an all too rare interaction with the Arab world whereby 19/20th century U.S. breeders helped to “save” this splendid breed. For joy as well as useful wisdom - come and view this beautiful film !” ~ DR. CARNEY GAVIN, Historian
